* [[AbsentMindedProfessor Paganel's]] mistakes. All of them. Special mention goes to the time he thought he was studying Spanish... and it turns out [[EpicFail he was studying]] ''[[EpicFail Portuguese]]''. He gets teased about it.

--> '''Paganel:''' This is an experience that makes our entire expedition worthwhile! ''[the rock he's standing on collapses]''
* Any of the times Lord Glenarvan breaks out the snark.
--> '''Paganel:''' I'm so stupid, milord.
--> '''Glenarvan:''' I know, [[TakeThat but that's never worried you till now]]. Upon my word, I don't know which is worse; you being so happy you sing all the time or so glum you won't even talk. ''[imitating Paganel]'' The ombú tree is gorgeous, enjoy it!

--> Robert bade fair to be an accomplished gentleman some day, for John Mangles was to make a sailor of him, and the Major was to teach him sang-froid, and Glenarvan and Lady Helena were to instil into him courage and goodness and generosity, while Mary was to inspire him with gratitude toward such instructors.
* When Captain Mangles starts to develop feelings for Mary, there's this line:
--> He was smitten with quite a peculiar interest for this young girl, and managed to conceal his sentiments so well [[EveryoneCanSeeIt that everyone on board saw it]] except himself and [[ObliviousToLove Mary Grant]].
